The area of triangle ACD and ABC are 17 and 46.75 square units respectively

<h3>How to find the area of a triangle</h3>

The formula for finding the area of a triangle is expressed as:

A = 0.5bh

where:

b is the base

h is the height

Area of the triangle ACD = 0.5DE * AC

Area of the triangle ACD = 0.5(2)(17)

Area of the triangle ACD = 17 square units

For the triangle ABC

Area = 0.5(BE)(AC)

Area= 0.5(5.5)(17)

Area = 46.75square units

Hence the area of triangle ACD and ABC are 17 and 46.75 square units respeectively
